The advantage of using a pc specifically designed for auto use is the boot-up and shut-down methods. Drivesoft boots up in just 6 seconds as opposed to a 45 second home pc and it shuts down w/ key-off as opposed to a home-type shut-down which takes about 30 seconds.
After key shut-down, when you re-enter your vehicle just turn-on your key and it re-boots in 6 seconds with no error shut-down. Hence the reason for an auto-based pc rather than converting your own.
